The King Of Fighters series is just not the same without these beloved characters. Considered among the pillars of the franchise, Ralf Jones and Clark Still are present in every iteration of KOF.
And like many other characters, they come from a previous SNK title. Theirs is called the Ikari warriors, hence the name of their team.

It's cool because even though Clark is relatively stern and introspective, he still has fun showing off in his wrestling moves, in contrast to Ralf's bombastic but still serious fighting style. Its a clever deviation of the typical Ryu/Ken dynamic with the stern serious fighter vs outgoing cocky fighter

That's why Clark always wears sunglasses? Wow. I thought he was just trying to be cool. Clark is a character whom I always found hilarious just looking at him. Buff Wesker lol. Clark's EX Argentine Backbreaker in KoF XIV is one of the funniest supers in the series especially when he does it to Sylvie Paula Paula. I was surprised to learn that Clark was KoF pro ET's favorite character as I don't hear Clark mentioned very much. You forgot to mention how Ralf went on a rampage through a military base because someone stole his soda... The Ikari Warriors given their military background can fit in pretty much any KoF game, so you can throw them in without any issues with the story. As a matter of fact, the Ikari Warriors excluding Leona and Whip are the first characters who did not originate in a KoF game to win a KoF tournament in the KoF timeline.

It's a nice switch-up from your usual posterboys with uppers and fireballs. They are grapplers and charge characters. Underrated , and loved; like a distinct flavor that can only be tasted when you put aside the cheeseburger and fries, and go for the mixed green salad with variety colored vegetables, and grilled, seasoned garlic spiced skirt steak, or chicken breast. Great video.

Aahhh, Ralf and Clark... Not only the best bromance in the entire KOF saga, but really two iconic core characters with amazing story, movesets and personnalities. KOF just woudn't be the same without them. And although Leona is cool, to me the badass and cool looking Heidern will always be the best 3rd member. Every title he's not in, his absence is greatly felt. He completes the team perfectly. I wish one day we'll have a KOF with 2 military teams. One with the original trio Ralf/Clark/Heidern, and another with Leona, Whip and a brand new recruit! Also can we take a minute to appreciate Clark's amazing alternate outfti from the Maximum Impact games? They're not all good in these games, but Clark's wrestling look is just the best he's ever gotten. Suggestion : could you make a video dedicated to what's probably the most unfairly underrated team in the entire KOF history, aka the USA Sports Team? Love this team. I'd love to see what you make of it. Keep up the great work!

This SAVE the ''Ikari'', but... destroy future possibilities with this title. :(

Wow so its like “yeah me and this guy go WAY back you see he left a nasty scar on my face but its all kool we participated in every KOF tournament and other adventures we are brothers in arms til death”, Ralf is my favorite though. You gotta do one Heidern next for sure, a lot of people say KOF 94 besides Rugal the Psycho Soldier and Ikari Warriors are broken and I agree and mainly because of Heidern for IW team, but aside from that Heidern has a good story, really kool character and easily one of the BEST military fighting game characters.

Ralf's moves reminds this references in pop culture: *Vulcan Punch\Machine Gun Punch Barrage: - Hokuto No Ken \First of Northi Start's Kenshiro blows - Saint Seiya's Pegasus Seiya and your move ''Pegasus Meteor rain''. * Galactica Phanton and Blitzkrieg Punch: - Tetsujin 28's rocket punch. - Kamen Rider's Rider Punch. - Juspion' Interplanetary Battle Giant Daileon (tokusatsus metal hero mecha): Galactica Crush Daileon Punch. * Ralf Double Kick: - Kamen Rider Black\Black RX's Rider Kick. Etc. All Ikari Warriors make reference to anime, manga and tokusatsu in your moves. After Ikari Warriors in KOF, some anime and manga make some ''pop culture recicling etroreloading'': ''Battle Angel Alita - Last Order'' (Leona design and personality. Alita\Gally make the inverse reference); ''One Piece'' (Ralf have a new version of ''vulcan punch'' based in Luffy's move); etc...

of many video games i played these guys are THE coolest tag team in KOF aside from my favorites from the fatal fury brothers terry and andy, ralf jones a hardpunching dude with a explosive ground and pound while clark steel is all around slam master with a many bone breaking moves to make anybody TAP OUT i also like leona's style of ass kicking too she got a hell a meanstreak when she start cutting somebody up also whip's methods of ass kicking could definetley bring any man down to her knees, now i played a few of their members in a NEO GEO games in an arcade in chinatown and in my hometown of the bronx in NYC born an raised and i just got in to the KOF XIV and found both of them are still sharp and still kicking and still better than ever thanks for bringing this up

Man i had to laugh out loud when you said Ralf's galactic phantom was easy to dodge but still made you sweat when you heard it triggered. When i first started playing KOF, i can remember many times fumbling on the joystick trying to jump over it, or getting cute and trying combo him just to get caught slipping and one punched. Great video Shoryu, it makes me miss the series every time you make a new one.

I really love KoF series. It’s the most diverse cast ever and they don’t care what national they from lol I literally thought the art of fighting team were the real all Mexican team even tho they were Japanese. And Ikari warriors were all Brazilian even if they were American. Damn thank you SNK

@@enterurnamehere27 when I saw the flag I thought they were and King of Fighters introduced me to art of fighting and fatal fury. I never knew they were from a different franchises. I was 10 when I first played KoF. As for Ralf his design was similar to some Mexican bar bouncers in some old Mexican action shows.

Too bad there was never an Ikari Warriors movie. All they have to do is cast WWE Superstars like Jeff Hardy to work out for the role of Ralf Jones and have John Cena's hair dyed blonde for the role of Clark Still.

I assumed John Cena could do the role of Terry well considering he has more of Terry's personality being a nice guy yet being serious when the time calls for it, but Cena definitely looks more like Clark.

@@KenMasters. True, I think if someone had to play Terry Bogard, I think Dolph Ziggler could play him. He could also do Ken Masters as well. He's handsome and has the blue eyes and blonde hair like them. But I think John Cena is good looking also and he could play Clark, I was saying Cena's personality reminded me more of Terry's because Clark is laid-back and quiet. In some games, the characters sizes vary though. In some games Terry will appear muscular but not too buff with a lean build like in his classic games from the 90s or the way he's depicted in the anime, but in other games he'll be ridiculously huge and bulked up like a tank, I hate that over-the-top "overdose on steroids" look *(I saw a KOF x WWE crossover mobile game where Terry is much more ridiculously huge and looms over the majority of WWE fighters with the exception of The Rock)* The same applies to Ryu and Ken from SF and even Ralf and Clark. In some games they're a good muscular size with handsome faces without being too big but in others they take it to extremes. I think the way Terry, Ryu and Ken look in Smash are among the best because they're based off their classic designs instead of their more modern bulkier designs.
